My take on the new Behemoth Ride

Wonderland has lost some of its "focus" since the Paramount days (and before the Paramount take over). Each area, like the Medieval Faire and the Grande World Exposition, used to have a much more apparent theme (like Disney's Tomorrowland/Adventureland). These days we have only vestigial nods to their origins (ie, the stuff that's too expensive to tear down).

Some of the rides, strongly themed for Paramount movies (like Top Gun and Tomb Raiders) have also lost their mystique after having been stripped of their trademarks.

The addition of the Behemoth ride, however, is a comforting sign that the current owners are trying to keep up with the Jones and not let the park coast on attendee memories of how nifty the park used to be.

Lines are not oppressive these days. The wooden coasters, always a treat for coast fans, have pretty short wait times (maybe 30 minutes). The signature rides have one hour wait times.

I find the pricing okay. But then I'm not paying for a family of four. Just me.

Food is typically expensive. I've always been able to bring in bottled water, however. It's odd when the on-prem Starbucks is actually the cheapest food concession going.

The only cons, aside from the muted theme this theme park has, is washrooms are hard to find. More obvious water fountains would be good (but then no one is going to spend $5 for a Coke). Food could stand to be a bit cheaper.

If you've already booked on, you should receive a communication today or we will contact you over the next few days to refund your entry fee in full and in the meantime we will be closing down the SiEntries site. The Behemoth is not over and we hope to announce an entirely new summer sportive next year. We really would value your input and feedback, especially if you did the first Behemoth ride in 2014. Either email us at or send comments via the option at the top of this page.

Obviously, it depends on what time of year it is but if it's in the summer...I'd get up as early as possible to make it out to Vaughan, just as the doors of Canada's Wonderland open. I'd spend as much time as possible there and make sure to try out the new Behemoth ride and my all-time fave, Xtreme Skyflyer - the bungee jump swing thing)! While we are there, we can eat a breakfast of funnel cake and a lunch of funnel cake with ice cream! For dinner, if we are sick of funnel cake - is that ever really possible? - we'd go somewhere fun and casual like Jack Astor's at Richmond and John. They have awesome apps and frozen raspberry beer! Since we're already there, it's always fun to catch a movie or even just take a ride on the never-ending escalator at the Scotiabank Theatre! The movies end around 10:30 or so - just in time to hit up a club in the area. or are definitely awesome places to dance the night away. Circa might even have a celebrity DJ spinning! And you can't leave Toronto without a drunk after-clubbing stumble into .
